\"Review and Outlook on the Supply and Demand Situation of Carbon Anodes for Aluminum in China\" Review and Outlook on the Supply and Demand Situation of Carbon Anodes for Aluminum in China Wang Pingfu1, Luo Yingtao1, Gong Zhen2, Li Qingyi2, Jia Luning2 (1 Zhengzhou Light Metal Research Institute, Zhengzhou, Henan 450041; 2 Jining Carbon Industry Corporation, Jining, Shandong 272027) Abstract: This paper analyzes the progress of aluminum smelting technology in China as well as the development and evolution of the market for anode carbon blocks (carbon anodes for aluminum), and calculates the demand for carbon anodes resulting from the construction of aluminum plants and aluminum production, along with its trends over time. Based on the production volume of anode carbon blocks in China, it is pointed out that market competition drives the production of high-quality anodes. Forecast the future development of China’s aluminum production and anode carbon block market. Some thoughts are put forward regarding some issues in the development of anode production.
